@Kveloki @infinitymod7 @F1RulesMedia Equal rights for everyone is not politics but human dignity.

@infinitymod7 @F1RulesMedia alonso was busy putting on an iconic performance for the ages while vettel had to get involved in politics. really sad end to e career for the german

“they can disqualify me, they can do whatever they want to me. I don't care. I would do it again”

@yamman3 @autosport The main issue was however the lack of visibility for the other drivers. There are enough scenarios where a car can end up on track, not just a rebound from barriers.

Hubert's crash was caused by the 'sloppy' barriers I mentioned earlier. F2 cars and the debris tend to bounce back out of the rubber which returns the energy. See Henry Surtees accident. For some reason F1 cars seem to break the return of energy, possibly as the old scrap yard tyres completely crush or the extra weight digs in.

@yamman3 @autosport While not F1 the crash of Antoine Hubert in F2 could be equally fatal in an F1 car. Side Impact will always remain a problem, no matter the safety standards of the chassis.

When was the last time an F1 driver died through a collision with another car, in any weather? Most deaths have been through sloppy barriers or more recently collisions with industrial vehicles that had no business around a live F1 car. F1 cars are crash tested with each other to an incredibly high standard. Halo, cockpit padding and Hans are more recent driver protection. Then there's strict driver positioning regs.

@Freightmunster @theereal_one You want an armored window for a hypothetical situation? How many people actually ever need to have an armored window.

@theereal_one You want weaker windows for a hypothetical situation? How many people actually need to be saved like this?

You realize how firefighters being unable to extricate a victim is a bad thing, right?

@JayQ2k @autosport Yeah you are right, you have no perspective on the issue.

@autosport This is not perspective. This is simply a skill issue that gets covered by words like safe...and through abusing the death of someone else. Unwilling to take a risk where you have to drive slower to make it for the Fame of some sponsors. Perspective......

@skyoculus @autosport Unless you are not satisfied and continously improve the safety of drivers and visitors.

@autosport It’s a dangerous sport. People will eventually die.

@yamman3 @autosport You are not making the argument you think you are making. What you are really saying is: racing is already dangerous with good visibilty, one should not add additional dangers.

@autosport Yet visibility was perfect at Silverstone 2021 and a driver ended up in hospital.

@ganwani @autosport Good luck idiots like you did not prevail and Formula 1 got a lot safer than in the 70s where multiple drivers had catastrophic accidents each year.

@autosport Staying at home and driving on the simulator is the safest option. Let the real men race. the ones with the families can be safe in a simulator at home. Problem solved!

@dont_mind_me_04 @damhamman @autosport It was in the dry, but Eau Rouge/Radillon poses a similiar problem to rain, where there is no visibility which can lead to tragic and avoidable accidents.

@damhamman @autosport this is after spa, a track that one of his best friends died due to racing in wet conditions

@Kachelmann Man kann ja über Klimaschutz Nutzen und Verkehrssicherheit diskutieren, aber Zivilisationsmerkmal? Dumme agressive Männer? Oh man, wie lost kann man sein.

Nicht nur aus Klimaschutz, sondern weil ein #Tempolimit ein Zivilisationsmerkmal für eine moderne Gesellschaft ist. Ein Tempolimit bedeutet, dass sich diese Gesellschaft nicht einer Minderheit dummer, kleinschniepelesker, rücksichtsloser und pathologisch anmutend aggressiver Männer unterwirft und Parteien mutig genug sind, nicht um die Gefolgschaft dummer Männer buhlen zu wollen.

@Sinthorai @Kachelmann Die einfache Antwort darauf: genauso effizient wie jetzt auch. Es gäbe keine Änderung. Die Physik ist bei 200 km/h die selbe wie bei 120 km/h. An der Crashsicherheit wollen sie auch nicht sparen, denn die hilft auch bei niedrigeren Geschwindigkeiten.

@Kachelmann Viel interessanter ist doch der Gedanke, wie effizient Autos sein könnten wenn man die Teile nicht baut, als müsste man jederzeit ein Rennen fahren können.

@muscomusic @jonathanstea Luckily science has helped us to invent medicine. No need to rely on magic potions.

@renm0711 @jonathanstea Maybe what science will reveal is taking magic potions isn't the best way to heal or be healthy.

There is a cult of ignorance in the United States, and there has always been. The strain of anti-intellectualism has been a constant thread winding its way through our political and cultural life, nurtured by the false notion that democracy means that “my ignorance is just as good as your knowledge.” - Isaac Asimov

@Nick65979825 @JewishWonk If you want to be pedantic be at least correct. West Germany got widespread sovereignity in 1955. Full sovereignity came only after the 2 plus 4 agreement in 1990.

@JewishWonk The occupation of Germany ended in the west with the establishment of the Federal Republic on may 23rd 1949. West Germany was quickly thereafter encouraged to rearm and welcomed into NATO. You almost certainly know this.

The Germans were not rewarded with a state after WW2. Millions of ethnic Germans were ethnically cleansed across Europe. Germany's borders were changed, and it was split into what would become two states, one under western military occupation and one under communist rule.

@theonerealstorm @MrBellamySan @glenn_tunes Norway had an army of just 60.000 men and a population of under 3 million. Please enlighten us how they should have stopped Germany, who basically whiped the floor with any oponent until the horrendous losses against the soviet union degraded their capabilities.

@MrBellamySan @glenn_tunes Norway fought the Nazis just like France did…

American propaganda is unlike anything the world's ever witnessed—it's mind-blowing! 🤯 As a Norwegian, critical thinking was ingrained in me. Trump's lies are easily debunked, yet so many still believe them. Why? 🤔

@muscomusic @jonathanstea Until you realize and acknowledge that, there isnt anything we can productively talk about.

@muscomusic @jonathanstea But you completly fail to realize that science is more like a giant puzzle, where we are less and less likely to do big mistakes as more and more of the puzzle is unveiled. Is science today correct on everything? No, but the fuzziness is decreasing all the time.

@muscomusic @jonathanstea It is drifting as it has nothing to do with proven working mechanisms of medicine. Your are just throwing a smoke screen here. And of course the brain has an influence on the body. E.g. placebos makes the brain release endorphines which work like opiates.

@renm0711 @jonathanstea It’s not drifting, it’s the root of your claim. If placebo has measurable power without chemistry, then belief alone alters the body. That’s not off-topic and its weird potions are such a sacred cow to you.

@muscomusic @jonathanstea Dont drift off topic.

@renm0711 @jonathanstea Why do placebos work?

@muscomusic @jonathanstea Its only medicine if it works better than the placebo in a double blind test. Try again.

@renm0711 @jonathanstea It shows me you don't know the placebo effect.
